Aldred Stepping Up Recovery

Tom Aldred is stepping up his recovery from injury during the off-season after seeing his campaign end earlier than expected.

The 24-year-old was restricted to just six starts for Blackpool following a transfer window move from Accrington Stanley, having sustained a hamstring injury in training.

"It’s been a bit frustrating with the injury but I’m just looking forward to pre-season now and starting afresh," he said. "I’m starting with a clean slate next season and I’m determined to hit the ground running."

The defender has been testing his hamstring for the past few weeks now and continues to do fitness work while away from the club.

"I’m back running now and I hope it won’t be too long before I’m kicking a ball again. I’ve sort of dealt with the injury and frustration mentally now and that’s why I’m looking to the future," he added.
